5733OPS - IBM i Open Source Solutions - new options

Opened a PMR with IBM.

From IBM support.

The fix install is broken on IBM V7R1,

The problem is the cloud-init.sh calls to the old egg code. which is no longer valid as the toolkit updated the wheel support.

You can edit cloud-init.sh and change the command from egg to wheel.

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/IBM%20i%20Technology%20Updates/page/Installing%20shipped%20add-ons


I submitted a techdoc on this but it is not public yet

edit the IBM i cloud-int.sh
find the section installing itoolkit

# install the itoolkit
echo 'Installing the itoolkit for Python 2.7...'
easy_install /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/itoolkit/itoolkit-1.1-py2.7.egg


Change from egg to wheel

#to install the native DB2 connector:
pip3 install /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/ibm_db/ibm_db-*-cp34m-*.whl
#To install the DB2 Django interface:
pip3 install --no-deps /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/ibm_db/ibm_db_django-*-py34-*.whl
#To install the Toolkit for IBM i:
pip3 install /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/itoolkit/itoolkit-*-cp34m-*.whl
#To install FastCGI gateway support:
pip3 install /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/flipflop/flipflop-*-py34-*.whl
#To install a lightweight web framework:
pip3 install /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Python-pkgs/bottle/bottle-*-py34-*.whl


Or complete the install manually

Pete, Node.js v4 lives side-by-side with Node.js v0.12:

$ /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Node4/bin/node -v
v4.4.3

$ /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/Node/bin/node -v
v0.12.13

If you want to change /QOpenSys/usr/bin/node to point to Node v4, there's a script to do that:

Better luck than I had with my 7.2 partition. Applied the latest
Group for 5733OPS and didn't get a node.js update (still 0.12.13),
haven't checked the other apps (long day....Zepto ransom-ware attack
on the
network) I think Aaron has a version in the 4.xx range.

I wish there was a better way to check on what versions of all the OSS
components were installed. I guess I could write a script that could
output node -v, python -V, etc to a text file....The current method
for checking that all is well...um, needs improvement.

To complete the thread I did get all of the V7R1 available tools

installed

and PTFd without issue. As suggested in another post the code that

did not

work below as because the environment this is installed in was a

normal V7R1

partition without any of the deployment mechanisms IBM has built so

that

update script was not applicable.
